Sandeep Tandon, founder and CEO of Quant Mutual Fund, shared his perspective on the current market, noting that "most admired stocks" are currently trading in "neglected zones." He remains cautious about the midcap space but is selectively buying within small-caps.
Tandon believes that the market has completed 60% of a risk-off environment, with 40% still remaining. He also emphasized that the shift from small and midcaps to largecaps is a gradual process.
He also said currency markets will give a better cue for equity markets than anything else. "Till the time currency stabilises, FIIs will not turn buyers so easily. Have seen some early signs of exhaustion in FII selling. Will not pre-empt when FII selling will be exhausted."
